In my quest to work in fresh recipe ideas as well as vegetarian options into our weekly menu plans, I found these delicious Portabella Mushroom Pizzas to be a great alternative to your normal pizza night!
Although my kids would not come anywhere near these mushroom pizzas, I have allowed myself to make these for mom and dad and let the kids create their own pizzas for our pizza night meals!
You could really get creative with these healthier pizzas and add your own toppings as well but they’re just as delicious served as they are with a sprinkling of red pepper flakes for a bit of a kick.
Portabella Mushroom Pizzas
Ingredients
- 2 large Portabella mushroom caps

- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes, optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees and line a baking sheet with foil
- Scoop out the inside of mushroom caps, creating a bowl
- In a small bowl, combine lemon juice, soy sauce and half of the olive oil
